Arranged marriage, love blossoms; a fiercely devoted soldier dotes on her alone.

"Hiss..."

Zhang Yingbao gasped when he saw the message; he never dreamed that Xiao Zhan would find him so quickly.

Zhang Yingbao panicked.

He had witnessed Xiao Zhan's abilities and background firsthand; killing him would be easier for Xiao Zhan than crushing an ant.

"Snap!"

In his shock, Zhang Yingbao immediately removed the phone battery.

He knew that with Xiao Zhan's abilities, he could quickly pinpoint his location even without removing the battery.

After a brief moment of panic, Zhang Yingbao calmed down and muttered to himself, "No, I have to get Huanhuan somewhere else right away. The old house has probably been exposed."

Although Zhang Yingbao was idle and only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun all day, he was not stupid; on the contrary, he was quite smart.

Studies have shown that people who enjoy eating, drinking, and having fun tend to have more agile minds because play can stimulate curiosity and a desire to explore, while also promoting the formation of neural connections in the brain.

Furthermore, people who indulge in eating, drinking, and having fun have to deal with all sorts of people, especially beautiful women. How can they win them over without putting in some effort?

Of course, most people like Zhang Yingbao are prostitutes; money is no object. But they also need to use their brains to avoid being caught in the act by the police.

Then Zhang Yingbao walked into the inner room, his lecherous eyes fixed on Qin Huanhuan, who was fast asleep on the four-poster bed.

"Gurgle!"

Looking at Qin Huanhuan's alluring body in front of him, Zhang Yingbao swallowed a large mouthful of saliva in a lewd manner.

Then he bent down, picked up Qin Huanhuan, and carried her into the courtyard, into the east wing room, which was used to store grain and farm tools.

In rural areas, every household has a designated place to store grain.

Zhang Yingbao then lifted a wooden plank from the ground, revealing a hole about one meter square. A wooden ladder was placed below the hole, allowing people to go down.

This is actually the cellar inside the house. In rural areas, every household has such a cellar, which is used to store various vegetables and food in winter. In the past, there were no refrigerators in rural areas, so they relied on cellars to solve the problem of storing vegetables.

Zhang Yingbao carried Qin Huanhuan down to the cellar, and during the process, the old man took the opportunity to rub Qin Huanhuan with oil.

Poor Qin Huanhuan remained unconscious and had no idea what was going on!

In fact, Qin Huanhuan was careless.

After parting ways with Hua Ying and the others in town, she took a Didi ride back to Zhangjia Village.

When Qin Huanhuan returned home, she saw her younger sister lying on the bed playing on her phone. Liang Yanhong was making lunch. Zhang Aiai was overjoyed to see her older sister and hugged Qin Huanhuan. The two sisters were very affectionate...

Zhang Yingbao very attentively poured water for Qin Huanhuan.

Qin Huanhuan drove from the city back to the countryside early in the morning; it took her more than three hours.

Qin Huanhuan was indeed thirsty, so she didn't think much of it and took the teacup Zhang Yingbao handed her, drinking the water in one gulp.

Then he returned the teacup to Zhang Yingbao politely, saying, "Thank you!"

She never called Zhang Yingbao "Dad" after she grew up and could remember things, because Zhang Yingbao was not worthy of being her father.

Qin Huanhuan took out the gift she had brought for Zhang Aiai.

When Zhang Aiai saw that it was her favorite cartoon character, Hello Kitty, she exclaimed happily, "Wow, my dear sister really understands me! Thank you, my dear sister!"

After taking the KT cat, Zhang Aiai looked towards the door and said, "Hey, sis, isn't my brother-in-law here?"

Qin Huanhuan's pretty face immediately flushed hot, and she said shyly, "Xiao Zhan is still abroad on a business trip."

Zhang Aiai said playfully, "I thought you and my brother-in-law had a fight."

Qin Huanhuan was immediately speechless and said, "Ai'ai, Xiao Zhan and I aren't even married yet, and you keep calling me 'brother-in-law.' How am I supposed to accept this?"

Zhang Aiai blinked and said, "Sis, isn't marriage just a matter of time? Didn't you and my brother-in-law already live together and try out marriage?"

Qin Huanhuan was speechless. Kids these days know so much.

Qin Huanhuan blushed and said, "Ai'ai, what are you thinking about all day? Hurry up and review the lessons you've missed. You'll be going to school next semester."

Zhang Aiai pouted and said, "Oh, I know, sis, I'll study hard."

Qin Huanhuan nodded, then said to Liang Yanhong and Zhang Yingbao, "Mom, why did you take Ai'ai out of the hospital and bring her back to live in the countryside? Don't you know? The house in our hometown hasn't been lived in for years, and it smells musty. Besides, it's inconvenient to buy things in the countryside, which is not good for Ai'ai's later recovery. The doctor said that patients should pay attention to all aspects of details during the recovery period and it's best not to be discharged from the hospital easily. The patient should be allowed to fully recover in one go, otherwise there will be sequelae."

"Why did you discharge Ai'ai from the hospital without consulting me?"

Zhang Yingbao said with a grin, "Huanhuan, aren't we just thinking of you? Ai'ai has been hospitalized for a long time, and your mother needs to rent a house. All of these things cost money. We know you work very hard and we can't help you much, so we thought of taking Ai'ai back to the countryside to save you money. The environment in the countryside is good, the air is fresh, and the vegetables grown by themselves are safe to eat. These things will help Ai'ai recover."

While cooking, Liang Yanhong said, "Huanhuan, we're worried about putting you in a difficult position. I know that Xiao Shao is paying for Ai Ai's medical treatment. After all, you two aren't married yet, and I don't feel at ease spending this money. What if you two don't end up together? How will we pay him back?"

This is a question that Qin Huanhuan really doesn't know how to answer.

Qin Huanhuan thought for a moment and said, "Mom, even if Xiao Zhan and I break up, it has nothing to do with you. I will handle things between him and me myself and will not involve you."

Seeing that Qin Huanhuan had finished the water he had poured, Zhang Yingbao was secretly pleased. So he poured another glass of water, but this time he added something to it. This substance was given to him by Zhao Ruirui. She said that this substance was very potent and that a person would fall into a coma within three minutes of drinking it. Unless an antidote was taken, the person would remain unconscious.

Qin Huanhuan was a little thirsty after talking for so long, so she took the water Zhang Yingbao handed her, took a sip, and continued, "Mom, did you cancel the lease on the apartment I was renting?"

Liang Yanhong: "If we quit, why don't we all go back to the countryside? You have a dormitory at the company. I heard that Young Master Xiao lives in a large apartment of several hundred square meters. Even a one-bedroom apartment costs more than two thousand a month. Houses in the city are too expensive and small. They are not as spacious as living in the countryside."

Upon hearing Xiao Zhan's name, Qin Huanhuan couldn't help but think of that stinky man. He'd been abroad for several days, and she wondered when he'd be back.

You know what, she actually does miss that stinky man a little.

I long for the strong, muscular arms of a smelly man.

I crave that suffocating feeling of a stinky man pinning me down.

I'd rather that stinky man be like a perpetual motion machine, carrying me along...

suddenly,

Qin Huanhuan noticed that the thing in front of her was shaking.

She cried out, "Oh no, it's an earthquake!"

As soon as Qin Huanhuan finished shouting, she felt dizzy and her body went out of control, causing her to fall to the ground. Zhang Yingbao, who was standing next to her, caught her in his arms.

Actually, it wasn't an earthquake; it was the medication in the water she had just drunk that had taken effect.

Liang Yanhong quickly came over and hugged Qin Huanhuan.

She didn't want Zhang Yingbao to hold Qin Huanhuan; she knew all too well what kind of person her own man was.

Zhang Yingbao and Liang Yanhong carried the unconscious Qin Huanhuan to the old house in the backyard.

This was something they had discussed long ago.

The two people laid Qin Huanhuan flat on the bunk bed.

Liang Yanhong said to Zhang Yingbao, "You're done here. Go take care of Ai'ai. I'll take care of Huanhuan for the time being!"

Liang Yanhong had already made up her mind.

She wouldn't give Zhang Yingbao any chance to get close to Qin Huanhuan...

That man is a piece of trash.

Zhang Yingbao obediently went out and began sweeping Qin Huanhuan's small bag, turning off her phone, and putting all the money in her wallet into his own waist bag.

Just then, Zhang Aiai came over looking for Qin Huanhuan, but didn't see her, so she asked, "Dad, where did my older sister go?"
